Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have taken Lorazepam along with Oxycodone which has no adverse interaction. It would not give any side effects as such except there is increase risk of dizziness, drowsiness and difficulty concentrating.
As your wife is feeling drugged this is the only reason behind symptoms. Need not to worry. This is normal.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
